“Karen was Always Professional, Organized, and Detail-Oriented”
“Karen Wilhelm-Mace and her Team are phenomenal design professionals. I was privileged to work with them on multiple projects in residential home buildings where they managed and installed the model décor and furniture. Karen was always professional, organized, and detail-oriented on every install- whether it be a small starter home or a million-dollar listing. Her team was always on time and willing to go the extra mile to get the projects completed within our schedule and meshed with our team’s budget and selling goals. The décor is tasteful, thoughtful, and universal to all tastes. I highly recommend her work to any company looking to bring on a talented firm.”
